Creepypasta

Creepypasta are short horror stories, fanfiction or other media that are collected and shared across the Internet with the intent of frightening or unnerving the reader. The name is derived from the internet slang term "copypasta," which refers to text that has been copied and pasted by users onto discussion boards multiple times. Creepypastas are similar to urban legends, although creepypastas do not always take the form of written text or spoken word; some consist of allegedly haunted images, videos, or games. Creepypastas come in a variety of styles, but some are particularly common. "Haunted image" creepypastas are fictional stories that include a picture that is said to haunt and torment the reader. "Lost episode" creepypastas are fictional stories about discarded or unused episodes of real shows, usually cartoons. Lost episodes are intended to unnerve the reader by deviating from the normative behavior of characters, centering on death, and including "hyper-realistic" images of the characters in the show. "Ritual" creepypastas are fictional procedures to invoke entities or supernatural experiences. Now from the Author of 'Disturbed' and 'Into the Darkness' comes a collection of these terrifying tales from the darkest recesses of the world wide web. So sit back, relax and remember they are only stories, aren't they?
